Aircraft Winglets Many of us who fly regularly have most probably seen a so-called winglet or wingtip device at the end of the wing of an airliner at least once. It is showing up more and more often on more and more types of aircraft‚ thus we felt it’s time to give an overview to our readers about these sometimes funny‚ sometimes cool and stylish looking aircraft parts. History‚ Reason and Benefits The initial theoretical concept goes back to times before even the Wright Brothers first took to

Introduction: Aircraft systems are amalgam of different systems within systems. Among many other system‚ Environmental control system is an important system of an aircraft which provide the aircraft with the basic necessities of maintaining comfortable atmosphere for passengers. In specific terms‚ it is the system which provides conditioned air supply‚ temperature control and optimum pressurization of cabin for both crew and passengers. Besides‚ some other functions like fire detection and suppression

| Case Analysis | | | | The one of the macro problems Wengart Aircraft is having is that they are the second largest company in the industry but are only ranked sixth in profitability (Brown‚ 2011). Wengart gets a large amount of contracts but they are spending a lot of money reworking most of the aircrafts after they come off of the production line. Another problem is the quality of their aircrafts is in question with the Secretary of Defense and other private customers. The Secretary

Aircraft Design Early Stages to Weaponized Warbirds Michael R. Boehnel Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Dr. JoAnne LeBeouf Many designers have made the claim that their designs were unique‚ one-of-a-kind‚ or revolutionary‚ however‚ time has shown that design changes have been more evolutionary rather than evolutionary. In fact‚ during the emerging years of early aircraft‚ many designers incorporated many designs‚ and as new technologies emerged‚ different designers incorporated them

be found on cars‚ metal pipes‚ aircrafts and anywhere with iron‚ copper and aluminium. Corrosion can be concentrated locally to form a split or crack‚ or it can extend across a wide area which causes corroding on surfaces. Because corrosion is a diffusion-controlled process‚ it occurs mainly on exposed surfaces. Besides costing millions of dollars in aircraft inspections and repair work‚ corrosion can lead to massive safety risks if it is left untreated. Aircraft mechanics and technicians have

13. Aircraft Performance In this chapter we will make the connections between aircraft performance and propulsion system performance. For a vehicle in steady‚ level flight‚ as in Figure 13.1‚ the thrust force is equal to the drag force‚ and lift is equal to weight. Any thrust available in excess of that required to overcome the drag can be applied to accelerate the vehicle (increasing kinetic energy) or to cause the vehicle to climb (increasing potential energy). Figure 13.1: A schematic of
